Request protection of a page, or increasing the protection level

Donald Trump

Temporary full protection: mugshot release leading to insertion of images that may violate copyright. Will120 (talk) 01:47, 25 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Declined – Not enough recent disruptive activity to justify protection. The article's already indefinitely EC protected; if people are doing this (not obvious from the history), I think full protection is a bit of a blunderbuss here—limiting editing to just administrators at this moment would cause more problems than it could possibly solve. Daniel Case (talk) 18:29, 25 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Ó Fearghail

Temporary Semi-protection: Continued disruption by an IP. Scolaire (talk) 10:05, 25 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Semi-protected for a period of 2 days, after which the page will be automatically unprotected. Daniel Quinlan (talk) 16:33, 25 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Maging Sino Ka Man (2023 TV series)

Reason: Persistent unreferenced and unexplained edits from IP users. TheHotwiki (talk) 10:27, 25 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Semi-protected for a period of 10 days, after which the page will be automatically unprotected. Daniel Case (talk) 18:32, 25 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

1998 FIFA World Cup final

Temporary semi-protection: Persistent vandalism – article linked on main page with persistent new user vandalism. Happily888 (talk) 10:44, 25 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Semi-protected for a period of 1 day, after which the page will be automatically unprotected. Courcelles (talk) 12:22, 25 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Talk:Gays Against Groomers

Indefinite semi-protection: GaG has complained about WP on their site, making yet more disruption inevitable. Dronebogus (talk) 11:06, 25 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Not done as I don't think pre-emptive protection is a good idea, however I've added the page to my watchlist, and feel free to re-report if disruption materialises. firefly ( t · c ) 11:23, 25 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]
@Firefly: Well, I've seen an awful lot of soapboxing and forum-y comments from hit and run IPs, SPAs and such on the talk page lately though. #prodraxis connect 15:09, 25 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Semi-protected for a period of 1 week, after which the page will be automatically unprotected. Daniel Quinlan (talk) 16:40, 25 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Halloween (1978 film)

Temporary semi-protection Over the past few days, an IP editor has been making a change to wording that I’ve challenged and given supporting reason for doing so via edit summary. IP editor repeatedly reverts with no explanation or discussion. NJZombie (talk) 13:32, 25 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

DeclinedWarn the user appropriately then report them to AIV or ANI if they continue. @NJZombie: As it is the same IP every time, talking to them directly might be a good starting point. Wikipedia editing is not what one would call intutitive, and if they edit via mobile, they might not even easily see the edit summaries. If they stay mum, warn and go to AIV. Lectonar (talk) 13:40, 25 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Saleh Hasan Oni

Reason: See Special:PageHistory/Oni Hasan, editors were previously told to work on Draft:Oni Hasan instead, but trying to evade. Needs blue page-lock just like Oni Hasan. 2601:5CC:8300:A7F0:8036:A400:79D0:6C97 (talk) 14:20, 25 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Already protected by administrator Ohnoitsjamie. indefinitely. Daniel Case (talk) 18:38, 25 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Pandorina kutija

Reason: The page was protected for a month to protect against a consistent vandal with a dynamic IP; immediately after the protection expired, the vandal was back at it. (I'll continue to report the vandal's IPs over at AIV, but I think further protection would also be beneficial.) Suntooooth, it/he (talk/contribs) 14:30, 25 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Semi-protected for a period of 3 months, after which the page will be automatically unprotected. Firefangledfeathers (talk / contribs) 14:48, 25 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

ISRO espionage case

Reason: IP vandalism. Unsourced or poorly sourced contents being added ChandlerMinh (talk) 14:52, 25 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

T-10 tank

Reason: A vague video of a T-10 being used by the Russian Armed Forces has been going around on twitter, which has caused people to go to the T-10 wikipedia page and changing the service-life data. It's mostly anonymous changes that either cite the unreliable video as a source, or no source at all. DukeLeotheFirst (talk) 15:21, 25 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Jonathan Taylor (American football)

Reason: There's a high level of IP vandalism going on that is meant to make people think that Jonathan Taylor is no longer an Indianapolis Colt. I would recommend semi protection for the time being. RevMSWIE500 (talk) 16:04, 25 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Chandrayaan-3

Temporary semi-protection: Persistent vandalism – Vandalism right after the protection was lifted. The Herald (Benison) (talk) 16:49, 25 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Semi-protected for a period of one week, after which the page will be automatically unprotected. Daniel Case (talk) 18:40, 25 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

2024 Formula One World Championship

Reason: Too much info added without reporting soucers. Island92 (talk) 18:45, 25 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Luis Rubiales

Semi-protection: Persistent vandalism – Vandalism by ip's and new users. Knitsey (talk) 18:57, 25 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Semi-protected for a period of 1 week, after which the page will be automatically unprotected. Firefangledfeathers (talk / contribs) 19:19, 25 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Clint Ramos

Semi-protection: Repeated edit warring by anonymous user putting in unsourced or very poorly sourced irrelevant and/or contentious personal material to this professional BLP Tvoz/talk 19:53, 25 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]
